Handbuilt | Porcelain | Stoneware Stein
The Rooted Sage Stein carries a strong woodland lineage, yet his features tell a different story. His carved face is longer, perhaps more weathered — cheekbones worn down by decades of rain and wind, a single eye peers out stoicly. The beard and lips cascades downward like roots seeking water beneath stone.
Finished in layered watercolor washes of charcoal stain, the exterior resembles aged bark at twilight. The interior glows with a vivid blue glaze — a striking contrast that feels like sky glimpsed through a dense canopy.
Details:
Hand-built ceramic stein
Deeply carved old man visage
Dark gray body
Glossy blue glazed interior
One of a kind
This stein feels distinctly aligned with druidic lore — the belief that wisdom lives within trees, that the forest is not silent but simply speaks in a slower tongue. There is an echo here of the ancient Ents, guardians of Fangorn, whose deliberate presence shaped the mythic landscape of J. R. R. Tolkien’s legendarium.
